Today we were being movie critics for the Manaiakalani film festival. I enjoyed being a critic for the movies. I gave this movie 5 stars because it was really funny when the teacher was stressed because everyone had to go to the toilet. Click on this link to watch this movie!
Mountain of Light’ or ‘Jabaal An-Noor’ is a piece that depicts the mountain in Makkah where the first few verses of the Quran were revealed to the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) by the Angel Jibraeel (Gabriel). This place on the ‘Night of Power’ or ‘Laylatul Qadr’ which is the holiest night of Ramadan.
I tried to copy the same colours as the original picture. This was an interesting activity to do.
A few weeks ago we made potato people after our teacher Mrs Agnew had shared a video called “The Potato People” with us. At first it sounded really weird to me but then Mrs Agnew said, ” ok now we are going to make potato people!” The class was REALLY looking forward to that. Mrs Agnew took out a selection of potatoes and some of them were old and wrinkly, fresh, new ones and a really big one too! Then she took out the art supplies and we got to work!
We used googly eyes, string, pipe cleaners, ribbons, sticks, toothpicks and I made an echidna but after a week or two I made it into an alien! It had sticks all over it and pipe cleaners adding extra character. A few weeks later, Ms Toland thought our ideas of using potato people in our movie were great. She taught us about the four important people who make a movie. They are the director, camera man, scene manager and editor. I enjoyed being the director the most because I could tell people what to do.
When we were making our movie we had to have some backgrounds! I was in the group making the rocket and there was also an evil lair, party scene, and inside the castle. The group decided that two people would make the bottom of the rocket and two more people would make the top of the rocket. Then we got to work. The bottom group was going to make so many rocket boosters and the top group was really fast too! Next we had to paint it which was time consuming.
After we had painted we were done. Then we had to work on the making of the movie, group by group. We were in the library with Ms Toland and we took lots of photographs as the potatoes moved slowly across the table. In this one scene when the rocket ship flew high and the sunlight was in sync with the rocket! After that we took a break for a while and then we did the voice overs! A friend and I went first and I did my normal voice and he did too but the next time round, I did a different voice. Yeah, then we were finished. All right time for a quick story about the movie. The birthday princess gets stolen by aliens and then ninjas save the princess in their rocket. In the end everyone shares in her birthday party.
today we were learning about when we are online it is important to not trust g00gle.te and always trust websites that you know are safe. AND WON’T HACK YOU. the moral of the story is don’t judge people by there looks they look bad but they are good inside!

A fortnight before the term ended, we did swimming lessons but before that, our teacher, Mrs. Agnew explained what it was all about and what we could expect. We were really excited! She told us to bring swimming togs, goggles, a towel, a mask and a jacket.
The day arrived and the boys had to go first. so all of the rooms 6, 7, 8, boys changed in the classroom (with the girls outside). When we were done changing we waited for the bus while choosing a partner (I was with my friend Jaeden).
The bus was here and we all got on. Jaeden and I were at the front and we all sang songs while we were going to CLM pool. It was really fun singing!.
When we got there we quickly went inside and took our jackets off and masks. Then we got to the pool and the swimming teacher told us to hop in.
We learned all sorts of swimming techniques like backstroke, freestyle and floating on our backs and also holding our breath under water. In the end we got to jump in the pool. I had to race the room 8’s but I lost though ;-;
Then the girls arrived and we got out of the pool and dried ourselves and put our jackets back on.
We got back on the bus and the bus driver took us back to school it was really fun! Here is a photo of ME swimming:
We have been making animations on our Chromebooks on google slides.
I really enjoyed this because I really got to experience it.
My favourite parts are the non glitch y parts.
my story is about a man who tries to save the world but fails the characters are the man (who survives) the glitch bird
and the glitch.
I put a lot of hard work into this. I made a lot of slides and got the right color for the shapes.
this is a blog post about my fish bowl. i made it in google draw and i enjoyed it really much. .
Kamusta. Good morning my name is Eldritch. I am nine years old and my class is room 6 at St Patrick’s School in pammure I live with my two siblings and my mom and dad. I was born in New Zealand but I’m a Filipino!
I am terrific at math. I keep my friends entertained and amused at lunchtime. My goal for the year is try to be the very best I can be. I love reading, drawing and writing blogs. Sometimes I find it difficult to stay awake at school because I can’t get to sleep easily at night time. Also we get up very early in the morning because we live a long way from school.
My parents inspire me to do as well as I can because they work very hard every day. I would like to be a doctor when I grow up. My uncle Benedict is a Surgeon and I would like to be like him. This year I want to be able to come to school everyday because I like being with my friends and I have had to stay home too often this year. Go away, Covid.
